Whoo-whooot ! All aboard the hype-train! Go! Go! Go! Currently at 216, myself.

Take care of you. I took a small break and ended up just uploading "recaps" instead of new chapters. went over some important info, some characters, etc.

Gah, woman after my own heart.

Spiritualism is deeply connected with woman's suffrage, too! Oh man, I have a whole book on it from when I was researching Victorian culture. Like weaving, dressmaking, spinning, ale-making, and herbalism before, it was a career that was female-dominated and carved financial independence. It's …

There's nothing fun on there quite yet, but I have machinations at work.

Oh no. I am only able to laugh about it now, because I have pulled myself out of severe depressions. You are not alone. I've been diagnosed since I was a child, but only recently really been trying to embrace it, bc I had to deal with far more pressing mental health concerns. It's hard to take a…

OMFG. My people. ADHD. It's freakin' torture. I love stories. I love writing them as much as I love experiencing them, but oh Holy Hell, Batman, it is nearly impossible for me to read. I have to be in a state of hyperfocus or in specific parameters, or it's just not going to happen. Of course, t…

Oh wowie! Thanks! Well, then, buckle up. That's just the first chapter. :blush:

Gosh, I love your cover so damn much. <3

I don't know if this has been mentioned. I've been skimming as best as I can. In case it has not: Potential Disturbing Imagery / Reader Discretion is Advised -- or something of the like. I'm not certain on how to say it, but I say it because I have an episode where the medic-character has to …

I don't know if this will count for you, but-- I'm writing a Gothic Romance Fantasy. So while, not really a horror, there's some..grotesque imagery. quote the blackorchid: (Context: Ophelia wakes up from nightmare/memory of going to decompose what she thought was dead body --only to find the bod…

I feel like at that point, they've roll their eyes and be all 'this shit again?' and then play it with pizzazz!

"PLAY FREE BIRD!" Would be my first response, as an absolute Goblin-person.

Okay, so, I'm sliding into your DM, because we need to talk about music and stuffs. :slight_smile:
